The U.P. Manila Chorale is the official choir of the U.P. Manila. It was founded in 1992 by a group of Behavioral Studies students and eventually was recognized as the campus choir.

Through the years, the group has been performing a wide range of songs from different genres: sacred, secular, folk, jazz, popular music; and from different historical periods: renaissance, baroque, classical, romantic, contemporary; and from our very own Filipino music.  Despite having no conservatory students in the group, and the age level is mostly college age, the U.P. Manila Chorale has been able to mold its members into well-rounded and versatile singers.

Youth, vitality, and love of music defines the choir aptly called the Voice of U.P. Manila to the World.

Our feature album, In Paradisum, is a live amateur recording of our sacred concert in 2005 of the same name. We performed excerpts of Faure's "Requiem". I suggest you listen to it in Lo-Fi for a less brilliant sound, but Hi-Fi is fine if you prefer it.

We hope to add more music in the future. We'll rehearse them first if we may.

Cheerio!

Have you performed in front of an audience?

We often perform live, as all choirs do. We love being onstage. Each concert has its own special moment and it may differ for each and every singer.

Anything else?

The U.P. Manila Chorale is an equal opportunity choir and does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, creed, color, political beliefs, economic standing or occupation. As long as you are U.P., have the drive to perform, the willingness to learn, and can come to our rehearsals, feel free to join and sing with us.

We aim to foster a respectful working environment. And that's that!
